  • By Jennifer M. Fogel a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy
    A MODERN FAMILY: THE PERFORMANCE OF “FAMILY” AND FAMILIALISM IN CONTEMPORARY TELEVISION SERIES by Jennifer M. Fogel A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Communication) in The University of Michigan 2012 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Amanda D. Lotz, Chair Professor Susan J. Douglas Professor Regina Morantz-Sanchez Associate Professor Bambi L. Haggins, Arizona State University © Jennifer M. Fogel 2012 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I owe my deepest gratitude to the members of my dissertation committee – Dr. Susan J. Douglas, Dr. Bambi L. Haggins, and Dr. Regina Morantz-Sanchez, who each contributed their time, expertise, encouragement, and comments throughout this entire process. These women who have mentored and guided me for a number of years have my utmost respect for the work they continue to contribute to our field. I owe my deepest gratitude to my advisor Dr. Amanda D. Lotz, who patiently refused to accept anything but my best work, motivated me to be a better teacher and academic, praised my successes, and will forever remain a friend and mentor. Without her constructive criticism, brainstorming sessions, and matching appreciation for good television, I would have been lost to the wolves of academia. One does not make a journey like this alone, and it would be remiss of me not to express my humble thanks to my parents and sister, without whom seven long and lonely years would not have passed by so quickly. They were both my inspiration and staunchest supporters. Without their tireless encouragement, laughter, and nurturing this dissertation would not have been possible.

  • What's on at the Heritage Centre: the Amazing Race Canada!
    VOLUME 23 ISSUE 4 AUTUMN 2013 What’s on at the Heritage Centre: The Amazing Race Canada! Editor: The following article is an excerpt from the RCMP Heritage Centre Staff News Letter, regarding a remarkable accomplishment by all concerned: On Monday August 12, 2013 the RCMP Heritage Centre and “Depot” were featured in episode five of The Amazing Race Canada. “Death by Lentils”, as the episode was named, saw teams searching through truckloads of lentils in search of a small Sergeant Bull Moose key chain which gave them the location of their next clue, the RCMP Heritage Centre. Once on-site, teams were escorted to their next challenge by Heritage Centre staff (dressed in period costume) where Assistant Commissioner Roger Brown, Sergeant Major Tammy Patterson and Corporal Sean Chiddenton awaited. Their task? Set up a barrack room in Fort McLeod and pass inspection. Teams that thought it would be easy got a rude awakening. Rooms were tossed, tears were shed and there were a couple of touching moments; for instance when CO Brown thanked one contestant for his service and in returned was thanked for his service. For those of you who have not seen the episode, it is now available for free viewing at www.ctv.ca/TheAmazingRaceCanada. A HUGE thank you to everyone at “Depot” that helped us participate in this tremendous opportunity! 1 THE CANADA NOT-FOR-PROFIT CORPORATIONS ACT: An Important Message from the Board of Directors of The Friends of the Mounted Police Heritage Centre. The federal government recently revised the their position (since the inception of the Friends legislation governing the structure and conduct four positions on the board have been appointees of not-for-profit (NFP) corporations, including from the RCMP Veterans Association).

  • NHPTV Ready to Learn Enhance Learning with the Learning Triangle
    Enhance Learning with the Learning Triangle We all have different learning styles: Visual (what we see) Auditory (what we hear) Tactile/kinesthetic (what we feel or do) The VIEW-READ-DO Learning Triangle combines all three by using related video, books, and activities about any theme or subject. The first step is to videotape children’s programs so that you can: preview; show at your convenience; watch over and over; and use as an effective teaching and learning tool by being able to cue, pause or stop, fast forward and rewind the tape. You can show specific short segments, discuss with children what they see, have them predict what might come next, explain new vocabulary words, and relate to a child’s own experiences. Visit www.nhptv.org/programs.schedule.asp for program schedule and a brief description of episode content and focus. Then, find age-appropriate books to read aloud and plan activites for children to do--draw pictures, act out or retell the story, projects, field trips. Add the Learning Triangle to your teaching toolbox.

  • 'Going from Broke' Exceeds Five Million Views
    ‘Going From Broke’ Exceeds Five Million Views in Four Weeks on Crackle November 15, 2019 NEW YORK, Nov. 15, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Chicken Soup for the Soul Entertainment Inc. (Nasdaq: CSSE), a growing media company building online video-on-demand (“VOD”) networks that provide video content for all screens, today announced that the new Crackle Original, ‘Going From Broke,’ from executive producer Ashton Kutcher, Chicken Soup for the Soul Entertainment and Matador Content has driven over five million views in just four weeks since its October 17th launch on Crackle, the free, ad-supported service. The original series puts a spotlight on an epidemic of huge proportions. As a nation, over 44 million Americans collectively owe a whopping $1.5 trillion in federal student loan debt, a number that grows each year and is second only to mortgage debt in America. Upon graduation, those entering the professional world face mounds of bills, a shrinking pool of employment opportunities, a lack of financial skills and a constant, crippling weight of oppression keeping them from reaching for their dreams. “This show has struck a chord with viewers,” commented William J. Rouhana Jr., chairman and chief executive officer of Chicken Soup for the Soul Entertainment. “There is clearly a need for this important dialogue. We are encouraged by the feedback and are now considering the possibility of a second season.” In the original series, Chegg chief executive officer Dan Rosensweig and financial expert Danetha Doe go one-on-one with young people living in pricey Los Angeles, what they thought would be The City of Dreams, to change their habits and gain financial confidence and become CEO of their own lives.
